League of Legends! A multiplayer online battle arena video game played by over 12 million gaming nerds worldwide! A game that clocks up 1 billion player hours a month! A game of magic-exploding, stabby, axe-wielding, bow-shooting madness! A game I had no clue existed…

Or at least hadn’t until the individual I lovingly refer to as my MonkeyButler wandered into my life and started making me tea.

Like all League of Legends nerds, when he’s not making me cups of tea or listening to me prattle on about the oddly disturbing world of kooky knitting, my MonkeyButler plugs himself into the net and kicks virtual heinie in the magical world of LoL.

I am a self-confessed nerdy gamer girl: I own a blue Ocarina, spent my teenage years planning my marriage to Final Fantasy VII‘s spiky-haired Cloud Strife *swoons*, ran away to Monkey Island with a rubber chicken, and on occasion rock a Super Mario Raccoon-eared hat. The text tone of my phone is the noise Link makes in Zelda when he discovers treasure, and the rug in my front room is covered in Space Invaders. I heart computer games.

I will say one thing though. I suck at League of Legends. I really really do.

Lucky for my MonkeyButler I am much better at making stuff. So, for the MonkeyButler who has everything, I crafted a Little League of Legends champion…

You rock girl! What a lucky monkey butler! I would guess that there are a line of monkey butlers outside your door now waiting him to slip up (when he delivers Earl Grey instead of Lapsang Souchang…). I only recently discovered this blog and adore it beyond reason. What’s not to love about Darwin with Cthulhu around his neck?! Can’t wait to see what you encourage out of your knitting needles next 🙂

This is so cute! I just started playing LoL and I really think I am the worst player :’ ) But this is a real cool idea to knit, and I might try this when I’m failing too hard in LoL 🙂 Really like it!
